In 2024, remittances to Vietnam reached approximately $16 billion, reflecting the confidence of overseas Vietnamese in the country's economic stability. Ho Chi Minh City alone accounted for $9.55 billion of this total, marking a 0.9% increase from the previous year.
A significant development in this sector is the partnership between FinFan and the Vietnam Maritime Commercial Joint Stock Bank (MSB), established on December 20, 2024. This collaboration aims to digitalize cross-border payment solutions, providing advanced payment infrastructure and services for individuals and businesses in Vietnam. By integrating with global remittance providers like Thunes, Remitly, and Ria Money Transfer, FinFan and MSB are streamlining cross-border payment flows, making transactions faster, safer, and more cost-effective.

The State Bank of Vietnam reported 9.13 million mobile money accounts and 128 million transactions worth $191 million in the first half of 2024. Despite challenges like fraud and technological competition, banks and payment intermediaries are investing heavily in security technologies to enhance customer experience.
The partnership between IDEMIA Secure Transactions and the National Payment Corporation of Vietnam (NAPAS) is another milestone in enhancing Vietnam's digital payment infrastructure.
